Sodium-based batteries are gaining momentum due to the abundance and lower cost of sodium compared to lithium. Solid-state sodium batteries can also provide further safety advantages. However, sodium-based solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) that meet all the rigorous requirements, such as high ionic conductivity, oxidative stability with the cathode, and ease of processability, are lacking. We present here a new class of sodium-based oxyhalide electrolytes NaNbClO with a facile mechanochemical synthesis. The oxyhalide NaNbClO exhibits close to two orders of magnitude higher ambient-temperature sodium-ion conductivity (1.03×10 S cm) compared to the halide counterpart NaNbCl (3×10 S cm). Structural motifs unique to the oxygen content in NaNbClO are identified with Na and Nb magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (MAS NMR) spectroscopy and x-ray diffraction (XRD). Solid-state sodium batteries assembled with NaNbClO electrolyte and the cobalt- and nickel-free layered NaFeMnAlO cathode exhibit a maximum discharge capacity of 155 mAh g with good cycle life at ambient temperature.

Background: This study aimed to assess the influence of different pretreatment protocols and antioxidants application on the shear bond strength (SBS) of universal adhesive to sound (SoD) and caries-induced dentin (CID).
Methods: One hundred and twenty posterior teeth had their occlusal enamel removed, then the specimens were divided into two main groups according to dentin substrates; SoD and CID, three subgroups according to pretreatments protocols control (no pretreatment), NaOCl-treated, and Er, Cr:YSGG-treated and two divisions according to antioxidant application (with and without sodium ascorbate (SA) application). All-Bond Universal (ABU) universal adhesives was applied in self-etch (SE) mode then resin composite discs were built.

Sodium-metal batteries (SMBs) using solid-state polymer electrolytes (SPEs) show impressive superiority in energy density and safety. As promising candidates for SPEs, solid-state plastic crystal electrolytes (SPCE) based on succinonitrile (SN) plastic crystal could achieve high ion conductivity and wide voltage window. Nonetheless, the notorious SN decomposition reaction on the electrode/electrolyte interface seriously challenges the stable operation of the battery.

Mixtures of multiple surfactants that have superior performance to the individual components are highly sought-after commercially. Mixtures with a reduced Krafft point () are particularly useful as they enable applications at lower temperatures. Such an example is the soap maker's eutectic: the mixture of sodium laurate (NaL) and sodium oleate (NaOl).

Article Synopsis
- Solid-state polymer electrolytes (SPEs) are gaining attention for sodium metal batteries (SMBs) due to their flexibility and lower interfacial resistance, but they struggle with sodium ion conductivity and unstable interfaces.
- A novel composite electrolyte called PPNM is created by integrating a 3D copper metal organic framework (Cu-MOF) with polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fibers and polyethylene oxide (PEO), enhancing ionic conductivity and sodium ion movement.
- The improved stability and performance of the PPNM electrolyte lead to strong cycling results for Na3V2(PO4)3@C/PPNM/Na full cells, making it a promising strategy for advancing solid-state SMB technology.

Flexible zinc-air batteries (FZABs) present a promising solution for the next generation of power sources in wearable electronics, owing to their high energy density, cost-effectiveness, and safety. However, solid-state electrolytes for FZABs continue to face challenges related to rapid water loss and low ionic conductivity. In this study, a hydrophilic and stable tetramethylguanidine-modified graphene oxide as an additive, which is incorporated into sodium polyacrylate to develop a high-performance gel polymer electrolyte (GPE), is designed.
